Avionics for Grand Theft Auto San Andreas (SAMP)
🇷🇺Русский язык ☁️ 🇵🇱Polski ☁️ 🇨🇿Čeština
The script is an attempt to implement avionics that are as close to real-world systems as possible in the game Grand Theft Auto San Andreas, considering the game's limitations and the feasibility of implementing certain systems. It was initially developed for the SAMP WARS server but can be useful for playing on other servers.
Note
Currently, the script is in open Beta testing. The information on this page may not reflect all current features and functionalities of the script if changes have not yet been updated in the documentation.
This script allows displaying basic flight parameters, auxiliary information for airplanes and helicopters, and includes:
- A waypoint system (PPM) for flight planning and navigation assistance.
- A landing system for any of the three international airports in San Andreas. Includes entry to glide slope, descent profile compliance, and director markers for runway centerline alignment in challenging weather conditions.
- An autopilot system (for both airplanes and helicopters), including for flights with a vehicle attached by magnet.
- An onboard guidance and targeting system with zooming, point fixation, coordinates retrieval, camera turning to waypoints, and the ability to create waypoints from fixation points, using visual and infrared views.
- A threat warning system with direction determination, threat indication on ILS, mini-map, displaying the necessary information, the ability for automatic jettisoning of flares (for SAMP WARS) and automatic ejection from the aircraft when structural integrity is low.
- A voice informant (RITA/BETTY).
- An onboard radar system with air-to-air and air-to-ground modes, capable of highlighting air or ground targets in the radar's line of sight. It does not see through walls and objects, so it is not a cheat and can be used on most servers.
- A datalink to view targets outside the radar's line of sight if another radar illuminates them (implemented via markers from other players; the SAMP server controls which markers to transmit to which player).
- An onboard targeting complex displaying the necessary information for accurate targeting, capable of locking a single air target using a helmet-mounted cueing system, with the ability to lose contact when the target is blocked by obstacles. The system provides important target information that can be used in air combat, interception, or maintaining formation when flying in a group.
- A ballistic trajectory calculator for FAB and Mk bombs (relevant for SAMP WARS bomb implementation).
- Compatibility with the SW.AAC targeting script for sharing target coordinates with a group.
- A damage system that allows part of the equipment to fail when the aircraft is damaged.
- A hook/magnet for transporting empty vehicles by air.
- Quick switching between day and night grid modes.
- Support for the AvionicsEditor flight plan editor and the online editor sampmap.ru.
- Script settings menu.
- Install
moonloaderandsampfuncsfor GTA. - Replace the
moonloaderfolder from the release archive into the game directory.
- moonloader
v.027.0-preview3and above - sampfuncs
- To use sampfuncs, the CLEO4 library is required.
- imgui (included in the release archive, can also be downloaded here)
